My friend Rick Georges is the attorney gadget king. He has a fascination for gadgets and a passion for the law, and has combined both to dramatically improve the productivity of his law practice! Got a demo today at lunch where Rick logged on to his server via his Treo and had instant access to his case management system (via remote control ala Citrix). Needless to say that I was impressed, not only was connectivity seamless, but the Windows desktop and apps were actually usable!
Rick also displayed a pdf file the was readable despite the small type and access to email that was quite functional. While the phone will not displace his laptop anytime soon, it does make computing accessible and convenient in nearly all environments, clearly the ability to tap into his business computing platform from anywhere is a boost to his productivity, and points to the possibilities that are evolving in Law 2.0
